About this map

Lonerock serves as the focal point of this high-desert landscape near the border of Gilliam and Wheeler Counties. The settlement is situated at the junction of Lonerock Rd and Buttermilk Rd, surrounded by a complex system of drainage and ridges. Notable watercourses like Lone Rock Creek and Robinette Cr carve through the terrain, while landmarks such as Boone Canyon and Stahl Canyon illustrate the deeply incised topography of the region.

Genealogists will find interest in the Lost Valley Cem located along Lost Valley Rd, north of where Lost Valley Cr flows. To the south, the boundary of the Umatilla National Forest marks a transition into protected timberlands, where Oxhead Ridge and Wineland Canyon define the southern reaches of the quadrangle. The map also records several forest service routes, including NFD 060 Rd and NFD 012 Rd, essential for navigating this remote corner of Oregon.
